  1. @critialcloudkicker I don't think a "pseudo-military regime" automatically goes hand-in-hand with more relaxed gun control vis-à-vis other Western nations. While I don't agree with every aspect of Swiss gun regulations, I do greatly admire many aspects of their gun culture over there, and I think there is quite a bit the US can learn from them. I need to research more specifics of whatever criminal and mental health evaluations they do, but they don't have nearly as many shooting-related problems as the US does. Furthermore, I don't think their combination of conscription with a non-belligerent foreign policy constitutes a "pseudo-military style regime."
